My Realization

My realization

Just yesterday, I realize.
That talking to him is bad for my health
I have to take care of myself so I can do well

What hurts is it seems like he don’t care
It’s seem like men can’t love.
Keeping quiet in front of jealousy 
Trying to be tough

Have to sit down and breath
My chest hurts
It’s really getting to me

I had to sit down and cry
Praying to the most high 
Asking him for strength to get through the night 

This hurts me so
Embarrassed to let anybody know

It seems like every time I say something good
Something bad happens like a curse 
I find a guy I really like then I get hurt

I don’t even want to try to find anybody else 
I can’t handle being hurt anymore
I will never let this happen to me agian 
I’d rather stay single 
Trying not to think about him 

I need peace
I need my power back 
I only love me
Inner peace is all I need
Takes time to heal 
Back to daydreaming
 Back to the world in my mind
That’s not real
